„I actually got a barista job thrown upon me I was in a small town named ferndale in the nw corner of washington state. I worked in a small video store with a combined radio shack, seattles best coffee, trading card store and a craft store. well one day while filing videos the manager of the seattles best came up to me and asked if I Wanted some more hours but working espresso so I took it up and did that for a while I really enjoyed it. after I left there I did some tullys, cafe vita in seattle and worked at starbucks for a few hours (they wanted to pay me 6.50)min wage being 6.25 at the time for a barista with nearly 4 years experiance and 1 year being at a really good cafe (cafe vita) anyway I took the apron that they gave me (still have it to this day) called them the next day and said forget it.“

CoffeeGeek - Espresso Cups Review - Francis! Francis! Zig Zag Cups
„from now on) is one of two cup sets I own by the company - the other is the Jubilaeum set. Zig Zag was designed by Ron Anderson for FF!!, (website ) It comes in a giant metal hat box-styled container with a picture of Francis herself (Francesco Illy's forever enshrined daughter - as a side note, it seems like he is forever apologizing to her on the FF!! Website (webpage ) but it's cute nonetheless. The box is impressive, and possibly the most impressive part of this collection.“

CoffeeGeek - Barista Basics... Or Not!
„As a consultant to many coffee companies around the globe, I have observed that most firms are headed by people who do not fully understand their coffee product. They generally see the product as a commodity, not as having value in itself, and not having a strong enough appeal on its own. This is the reason why many are simply interested in the cost side of the ledger, always asking themselves how can we do it cheaper rather than how can we do it better.“
